Which method is not a technique currently used by ocean scientists to map the topography of the ocean floor?
Satellite imagery is not typically used by ocean scientists to map the topography of the ocean floor, as it cannot penetrate the water to provide detailed depth information. Instead, methods such as multibeam sonar and lidar are commonly used to create detailed maps of the ocean floor.
Are maps made from sonar and magnetometer data led to the discovery of ocean ridges and deep-sea trenches?
Yes, sonar and magnetometer data have been instrumental in the discovery of ocean ridges and deep-sea trenches. Sonar data is used to map the sea floor topography, revealing ocean ridges, while magnetometer data helps identify variations in the Earth's magnetic field caused by stripes of rock on the ocean floor, contributing to understanding plate tectonics and the formation of deep-sea trenches.
Why is echolocation important to the study of the ocean floor?
Because it helps map the ocean floor and have a better picture of it Because it helps map the ocean floor and have a better picture of it
What are sonars used for?
Scientist use Sonar to map the ocean floor. Scientist use Sonar to map the ocean floor.
Are submersibles used to map the ocean floor?
no sonars areNo they are not, a sonar maps the ocean floor.
What was used aboard HMS Challenger to map the ocean floor?
HMS Challenger used echo soundings, which involved sending sound waves to the ocean floor and recording the time it took for them to bounce back, to map the ocean floor. This method helped create the first global maps of ocean depths.
What tools are used to study ocean floor?
echo location is used to study, and map the ocean floor. submarines and camaras can also be used.
How many of the plates on the map consist entirely of ocean floor?
1000
Where can you find a map of the ocean floor?
Download google earth. In layers on right bottom select OCEAN
What sensitive device is used to detect magnetic fields on the sea floor?
magnetometer
Do you need to have a topographic map in order to explore the ocean floor?
No. The ocean floor can be located by sonar, by probe or by diving. But a topographic map will save time and money and preclude errors, as well as providing some safety.
How could a graph be used to map the ocean floor?
